Airline business hit by Gustav

The airline industry took a hit from Hurricane Gustav this Labor Day weekend. By disrupting travel to and from the Gulf Coast, the airlines didn’t get critical holiday revenue. Airtran Airlines canceled 23 flights, Delta Airlines 21. Flights could resume to Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport in Mississippi today. It’s unclear when flights will resume to Armstrong New Orleans International.
